Are you reaching your patients? If they have low health literacy like 80 million adults in the U.S., they might be missing important health information. Nursing excellence means more than being hands-on. It means meeting patients where they are to deliver exceptional care.
IHA’s Health Literacy Specialist Certificate Program equips you with tools to communicate more effectively and make a bigger impact. It empowers you with key health literacy knowledge and skills to reach every patient, every time.
Did you know:
“As nurses we provide a lot of patient education, but we often see how little they retain due to information overload, stress, lack of sleep, anxiety, etc. I took this certificate course to do better for my patients. I was able to gain tremendous knowledge on the subject and have become passionate about health literacy. I apply the health literacy principles to my everyday work and have seen a great impact on my patients as well as my fellow staff members as I continue to promote health literacy in my institution.”
